harvesting device is the acme of perfec-
ton In the south end of Machinery Hall
is one in full running motion, the exhibit
of Mattison & Williamson, of Stockton.
Nothing ever invented has SO revolution
lied the harvesting of grain as has the
Harvest Queen, and no exhibit ever brought
to the Pavilion draws larger or more in
terested audiences than nightly gather
round this wonderful machine.
IMPROVED GRAIN CLEANERS
Are shown in the Machinery Hall by Dan
lei Best, of San Leandro. These embrace
full line; from his hand-mill for farm us
to the immense separator for warehouses
and Touring mills; from the cleaners for
attachment to any combined harvester to
the portable separator for steam thrashers.
All have superior advantages possessed by
no other machine. But worthy of
particular enumeration are the points no.
ticed in the one for the combined Har-
vester. This mill has two shoes, one OPP
Grating the reverse way of the other, di-
vides the grain and returns portion for
recleaning, adjusts itself to the speed of
the thrasher, has no lost motion or loose
joints, and merits the appreciation SO
freely accorded by men of experience
who witness its wonderful work. By
an ingenious set of barley riddles at
tached to all his mills, wild oats are
separated from barley, feat accomplished
by no other machine and a series of cross
bars underneath his screens renders it i'm
possible to clog one up. Farmers and
thrashers examine this exhibit from morn
ing until the Pavilion closes at night, and
those who have not the opportunity of
visiting the fair should address Mr.. Best
at San Leandro, who will mail him free
full illustrated descriptive circulars.
WHITTIER, FULLER & co.
In our special mentions of the exhibits
at the Pavilion we have left the best for the
last This statement when applied to that
of Whittier, Fuller & Co.. whose place of
business is located at 1920 and 1922 Second
street, between ] and X, is truthfully made.
Thousands of visitors at the Pavilion who
have admired this exhibit, which occupies
the east corner of the south gallery of the
exposition building, are witnesses of this
fact. Some of the most noticeable features
of the display are the two handsome French
plate-glass mirrors which adorn the walls.
The frames, which are massive, are
beautiful.beyond description, both in arts
tic design and wealth of beauty
In the same mention belongs the beautiful
ornamented pedestal which stands in the
center of the exhibit, also the bouquet
stand. The gilt easel, as well as the many
different styles of picture frames are all
worthy of special notice. In addition to
the above, the same firm makes fine dis
play of interior decorations for parlors, ETC.,
which are deserving of the careful study of
all who visit the Pavilion. The class and
character of goods shown in this exhibit
are among the specialties manufactured by
the firm. They are designers of all kinds
of gold, oxidized and gilt work Whittier,
Fuller d Co. may well feel proud of the
part they have taken in making the Pavilion
attractive.
c. M'CREARY * CO.
Make a fine exhibit of seven different
brands of flour in the Pavilion. Two of
the above brands are used entirely for ex-
port purposes. For the last five years they
have received the first premium from the
State Fair Association for the best -four
made in California, and it is safe to say
they will carry off the honors this year as
they have done in the past Their flour
has the reputation of being the whitest
made on the coast. 1t is true that their mill
is not the largest, but it is one of the most
complete west of the Rocky Mountains
This fact alone gives them superior advan-
tage in manufacturing first class -four. c..
McCreary & Co.'S mill is located on Front
street, between l. and NJ, in this city.
a PRODUCTIVE FARM.
All those who have witnessed the indi-
vidual exhibit made by i. Y. Bugbey in
the Pavilion, north OF the music stand, of
the products of his farm, will agree that
land which will successfully grow the
many varieties shown in his display must
be productive. Mr.. Bugbeys ranch is
located 26 miles above the city, on the Sac
ramento river, at Kirkville, Suffer county
Two miles of the farm front on the river.
iS onpahla of hot
soil of California will produce. AS an evil
dence of that fact, we simply invite the
readers attention to Mr.. Bugbey's dis
play, which surely speaks more elo-
quently than the pen can. This individual
exhibit, which is one of the noteworthy at
fractions at the Pavilion, consists of seven
varieties of squashes, apples, Bartlett pears,
prunes, Irish potatoes, sweet potatoes, car
rots, turnips, barley, wheat, yellow corn,
Egyptian corn, popcorn, tomatoes, beets,
etc. The cornstalks, of which bunch is
shown, measures fourteen feet and six
inches in light. On this place wild oats
grow six and one-half feet high, and blue
joint five and one-half feet Mr.. Bugbey
may well feel proud # his individual ex-
hibit, for the developed condition of his
farm products shown in the Exposition
building are the most convincing evidence
OF the productivenoss of the soil in that
vicinity. Kirkville Landing is part of
the farm. At this place all the steamers
which ply on the upper Sacramento river
have a good and convenient landing for
the shipment of farm products direct to
tide water. The proprietor offers two hun
dred acres of his farm for sale. Those who
may desire to purchase will do well to ex-
anime the exhibit at the Pavilion, and
satisfy themselves as to what the soil will
produce.
